The Way I See Itย โ€ขย 3m

๐Ÿ–๏ธ A founder once told me, I can build startups to solve global problemsโ€ฆ. but I canโ€™t figure out how to file my compliance forms without losing my mind.โ€ That hit me hard. India has crossed 100+ unicorns, and yet, many founders will tell you the toughest part isnโ€™t raising money or finding talent itโ€™s navigating policies that feel stuck in the past. Here are a few things that could change the game: 1. Bureaucratic hurdles:Why should a founder building cutting-edge tech spend more hours on paperwork than on product? A truly digital, one-click system for compliance would free up massive creative energy. 2. Level the funding field: Early-stage startups, especially in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities, struggle to be seen. Imagine the kind of disruption weโ€™d unlock if capital reached beyond the usual hotspots. 3. Inclusion as growth strategy: Only ~14% of Indian founders today are women. Thatโ€™s not just a diversity issue itโ€™s lost opportunity. More women-led startups could be Indiaโ€™s biggest untapped growth engine. 4. Turn ideas into IP power: If filing and protecting patents became simpler and cheaper, Indian startups wouldnโ€™t just be competing theyโ€™d be leading globally. We donโ€™t just need applause for our startup ecosystem. We need policies that are as bold and agile as the entrepreneurs driving it. So Whatโ€™s the one policy fix you believe could unlock Indiaโ€™s startup potential 10x faster?
